Plaintiff,

ORDER

v.
WILLIAM H. DuBOIS; et al.,
Defendants.
/

13
14

This action was dismissed and judgment entered almost a year ago, on July 19, 2010.

15

Plaintiff filed a "request for 30 day continuance" on July 8, 2011, on the ground that he has been

16

denied access to the courts, legal assistance and a law library. The request is DENIED because

17

there is no need for any continuance in this action that has long been closed. (Docket # 26.) The

18

court does not construe the document to be a request for an extension of time to file a notice of

19

appeal or to reopen the time to appeal because it does not mention an appeal and the deadline

20

by which to file such a request passed many months ago. See Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 4. Plaintiff

21

should not file any more motions or requests in this closed action.

22

If plaintiff wants to complain about a denial of access to the courts at his current prison,

23

he may file a new civil rights complaint but should do so in the appropriate venue. The court

24

in the appropriate venue for a claim concerning the conditions of confinement at Pleasant Valley

25

State Prison in Coalinga is the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
